Family man Steven Russell (Carrey) has a secret: he’s gay. Well, two secrets: he’s also a con man. When he’s jailed for fraud, he falls in love with inmate Phillip Morris (McGregor), but staying together isn’t going to be easy...[Empire]
First off if you find bodily fluid humour funny you'll like this much more than me. It was fine, in no way was it bad but it wasn't great either. Maybe the Carrey performance was too cartoony for me to empathise with. A major plot point was spoiled by Jason Solomons when he stood in for Mark Kermode on Film 24 [BBC News channel] last friday which robbed the end of suspense for me.
